San Francisco, CA

Hello, hello! It's been over a month since the last time I was here, but the last few weeks have been pretty intense! Fortunately I could get to travel a lot as well and go back to one of my favorite cities: San Francisco. Are you ready for another trip?

It all started with a road trip of about 350 miles. We left LA on Friday morning and opted to take PCH so we could have a perfect view of the California coast.
The trip is beautiful and you can stop anytime to admire the view but it definitely takes longer than a "regular" freeway (it took us about 8 hours).

The shop is super charming and the sweets/cakes are delicious. To be honest, I had already tested several recipes from her book (they are super laborious) and hadn't found anything extraordinary. I thought it was me, but after trying her version, I made up my mind: there is nothing special about them. But it was worth the visit and I satisfied my late-afternoon sweet craving anyway!

Then, a a quick drive by the Fisherman's Wharf...

And some more charming steep streets...

As we were feeling beaten up by SF (in a good way!) and the next day we had to drive back to LA, we decided to do something I love when I'm staying in a hotel: pic-nic in the room!

And that was it! A weekend in SF.
Whenever I get the chance to visit the city, I am more in love with it and its "almost" perfect blend between New York and Los Angeles (and I say almost because of the weather, oh my... Do we need all that wind and low temperature every time!?)

A little bit about me...

My name is Camila, I am Brazilian, I live in Los Angeles (it's been more than 3 years now) and I'm passionate about food, travel, decorations, novelties etc. In recent years I've had the opportunity to discover interesting things so I decided to write this blog to share my experiences with everybody who appreciates the delights of life! Since I am a Brazilian living in LA, the posts are a foreign vision - my vision - about things. They might be a little different from yours, but I'm sure you will enjoy it as much I do! Have fun!
